Holy cow, this is really fun so far. Williams is clearly having the time of her life, and the camerawork, sets, and special effects are really something to behold. Everything is coming together so perfectly that I still can't believe that it's being acted out live. The only real mishap I've noticed is Mr. Darling possibly flubbing his lines (they should have just given Walken that role anyways). Still, that's amazing, considering that two of the leads are children and a minor character is a dog.

Walken is just a passable Hook, though. His voice is very distracting, but he has his moments (those long notes!) He just doesn't seem constantly into his character, especially when next to Smee or Peter. I was expecting him to be laughably so-bad-it's-good in that role though, which he isn't. I can't tell if that's a good or a disappointing thing.
